U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM), U.S. Air Forces Central Command (USAFCENT) and U.S. Naval Forces Central Command (USNAVCENT) are supporting the Bahrain International Air Show (BIAS) 2014. This year's BIAS 14, is scheduled for 16-18 January 2014 at Sakhir Air Base in Manama, Bahrain. It is anticipated this year's BIAS will attract up to 1,000 exhibitors from nearly 50 countries and more than 55,000 visitors. This year, the United States is showcasing a variety of our military aircraft through static displays, including the following: C-130J Hercules, F-15E Strike Eagle, F-18E/F Hornet, MV-22 Osprey, and UH-1Y Huey Venom, AH-1Z Viper and MH-53E Sea Dragon helicopters. The U.S. Air Force will also have a B-1 Lancer and F-22 Raptor flyby, but will not perform any aerial demonstrations. The aircrew and aircraft participating are all from locations in the CENTCOM AOR. The BIAS is an internationally acclaimed air show and is rapidly becoming a premier aviation and air industry event. This event is just one way the United States and its allies and partners work together to promote security, stability and mutual interests in the region. U.S. participation also builds upon our strong relationship with Bahrain and enhances our relationships with other allies and partners in the region. ================================== Work: Bahrain International Airshow 2014 (Day 1 B-Roll) Author: MSgt Pedro Jimenez http://www.dvidshub.net/portfolio/1044922/pedro-jimenez Identified by: DVIDS Creative Commons "Public Domain Mark 1.0" has been applied to this work: http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/mark/1.0/ *** This work, Bahrain International Airshow 2014 (Day 1 B-Roll), by MSgt Pedro Jimenez, identified by DVIDS, is free of known copyright restrictions under U.S. copyright law. ================================= To all the men and women of our military - the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard, to those serving Stateside, to those fighting the Taliban and insurgent forces in Afghanistan, to those who face off with the soldiers of North Korea 24 hours a day, and to those stationed abroad in Germany, Japan, and other countries around the world - thank you for your service!
